Class Experience

US Grade Pre-Kindergarten - Kindergarten
This dinosaur-themed course meets once a week for 4 weeks and will explore fundamental math concepts that will help your child prepare for Kindergarten. This course is ideal for students who are in preschool or Kindergarten. I am a certified math teacher with over 8 years of experience and love to make learning fun! Students will be provided with dinosaur-themed activities which will allow them to explore the concepts in a fun, engaging way. There will be many opportunities for students to participate and share their ideas. This course is full of content and encourages learning through group activities and games. On the last day of the course, we will have time for show and tell. Students will be encouraged to bring their favorite toy dinosaur to share with their friends at the end of the class. 

Our daily schedule will be as follows:

Students are asked to bring some basic supplies with them to each class including any printable pages I provide, blank paper, pencil, and crayons. On day 2, they will also need to bring a collection of 20 small items that they can use as counters to help with one-to-one correspondence and addition. This may include things like small toys, paper clips, Cheerios, etc. (I will be bringing my small dinosaur counters). If any other items are required I will give notice. Please check the classroom for updates before class begins. If you do not have access to a printer, that is okay. I will make accommodations for the activity and ask students to record answers on a blank sheet of paper or whiteboard instead. I hope to see you in my classroom soon!
**if my section times do not work for you please feel free to send me a message requesting an alternate day or time. I will do my best to make something else work**

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello everyone! My name is Danielle. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Child and Youth Development as well as a Bachelor of Education degree. I am a certified teacher qualified to teach Kindergarten-Grade 6. I also have additional specialized qualifications in Reading and Primary Education and have taken numerous professional development courses focusing on literacy and mathematics. I also have my TESOL certification for teaching English. I consider myself to be a continuous and lifelong learner and am committed to embracing the challenge of professional growth in order to provide your child with the best possible learning experiences. 
Over the past 8 years, I have been a classroom teacher and have taught many grades. I currently teach Literacy, Math, and Science to Junior and Senior Kindergarten students. I knew that I wanted to be a teacher for as long as I can remember and it is truly my passion. I strive to create innovative classes that keep my students engaged while learning at the same time. For the past 3 years, I have also been teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) to students through an online platform. I have taught thousands of ESL classes in person and online. I have taught English to students from all over the world including China, Peru, Mongolia, South Korea, Malaysia, Brazil, and Japan. It can be difficult for young children to learn through a computer screen, however, this experience has strengthened my ability to be an engaging teacher even while teaching virtually. I keep my students engaged by utilizing technology, incorporating movement when possible, making the content relatable, and learning through hands-on experiences. 
I am a mother to a 3.5-year-old boy and an almost 1-year-old girl. As a parent, I know how important it is to feel informed when it comes to your child’s education. For this reason, I make open communication with parents and guardians a priority. Please feel comfortable contacting me, through the Outschool platform, if you have any questions or concerns about your child’s learning experience in my classes. I am passionate about embracing my students’ eagerness to learn and to enhance their growth as individuals. I encourage and welcome all learners in my classroom and would love to teach, have fun and learn with your child!
